In my initial blog post and in at least one other post, I mentioned that this blog was going to be dedicated (at least for awhile) to trying out all the things that are supposed to make you happy. Newspaper articles or columns, internet articles, books, etc. all have great advice and tips on how to be happier or how to make your life better. Instead of reading those things and saying to myself, “I’ll have to try that” and then doing nothing, I wanted to actually follow those little pieces of wisdom and then write about what I experience.

Well, there has been a slight change of plans. I mentioned in one of my resolution tips that my resolution for the next year was going to be to get my family out of debt or to at least make good headway in that direction. After giving it some thought, I thought it would be a great idea to blog about the process that we will be taking to get financially healthy. I believe that such a blog will allow people to see the process it takes to do something big like this and it also holds us accountable to staying on track with our goal. And being that financial freedom is a huge source of happiness, I am technically following my original intent for the blog.

And so, beginning in January, you can check in to see where we are in our journey to financial well-being. Looking forward to seeing where this goes!
